Food was good today minus a small apple snack this evening. Exercise is back in play thankfully and I am already feeling better having my exercise routine back!
Hope you having a great day...let me know how I can encourage you and be praying for you!

Day 36 -- whirl wind!
Whirl wind of a day! My eating habits did not change today (from day 37). But my exercise consisted of dancing around the apartment while cleaning and enjoying a nice run to continue prepping for the 5K.
Although it was rough being out for two days to rest and such, I will be very glad to get back to routine in the morning!
Today's inspiration: If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, (Hebrews 10:26 NIV)

Day 37
Busy day helping my parents around the house. Eating was best day yet with only veggies and proteins. Exercise was minimal after a warning from an experienced personnel regarding my strict diet and high calorie burn.
Unfortunately my exercise time has to be cut in half from here on out to insure that my health stays on the forefront and not just weight loss alone. My leg was very sore today and has had some rest yesterday and today. Hopefully I will be able to kick it back into gear tomorrow to maximize the next 36 days!

Day 38 -- rest day
I woke up exhausted today from the exercise regiment I presume and a busy too! After a spontaneous trip to FM last night I am not in my element today but definately enjoying helping my mother at their house!
Eating habits were good today and was kept in line by yummy grilled food which always makes it better to eat healthy!
Exercise was very minimal today as it was rest day and I was definately to exhausted to give it my all.
Inspiration for today: So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. 1 Corinthians 10:31

Day 39
Busy day today but good!
Ended up going on a spontaneous trip to FM with the parents so this weekend should flow a little differently than usual but hopefully a good different!
Eating habits were good today and I stuck to veggies and protein except a minor 4 rotini pasta noodles and 7 ruby Tuesday croutons at dinner with the parents tonight. Still my carbs were over all lower than any days so far.
Exercise was ok, I was super busy today so I was only able to exercise about an 1.5 hours which is ok since I feeling a bit sore from the new routine.

Day 40 -- wow, I won't do life alone!
First off, I have added a few things to the blog to make it more user friendly (I am suppose to be doing the hard stuff, not you!). There is an option below the title to allow each post to be emailed directly to you so you don't have to visit the blog everyday and check if I've posted (if you even plan on doing that), there is also a poll to the right of the posts for you to give input as to what I do in my exercise (you can answer once each day not just once), finally I have changed the settings to where anyone can post comments or likes. It will post as annonomus if you do not have a google account so please sign your name in your post so I can thank you and encourage you also! :)
Ok so now the fun stuff! Today has been AWESOME thanks to each of you! I have seen so much encouragement and it has pushed me further than anything I have ever encountered in this world.
I began my day with two seperate workouts and lasted for a total of 2:35 minutes! And after I post I am going back to the gym (energized!) to finish off my 3 hours for today. This alone is wow for me because I am sooo excited about going which is a new feeling!
My eating habits were good today as I have eaten only veggies and protein (which is the goal) however I did intake some dairy today which is not in the plan although I am taking baby steps to get away from my love for dairy products! I stayed way under my calorie goal and exercised more than I ate calorie wise so yay!
My attitude today has been so incredibly high! I have a lot of highs and a lot of lows over this year but this is the best day I've had in quite awhile with regards to how I feel about me. I have seen so many people step up and be ao incredibly supportive of my efforts and attempt to change my lifestyle for the best and I can not put into words just how incredibly thankful I am!
Keys for success: perserverence, today's 3 hour exercise goal was intense and I wanted to give up at times but I refused and am so thankful for it. It was your encouragement that kept me from giving up when it got tough!
Goals: I still need to learn how to breath properly as it doesn't happen in a day but I did practice today and counted each breath interval to ensure consistency (yes I know, math teacher all the way), find out where my 21g of carbs came from today and not eat it tomorrow (broccoli maybe?)
Today's inspiration: After doing a good bit of research the past few days I have figured out why DVD workouts don't work for me the way they do for others. This quote regarding the Chris Powell DVDs sums it up... "I must say I am much more willing to work harder for someone who comes across supportive and motivating versus relentless in their coaching approach."
Please keep the encouragement flowing because that is what is driving me right now!!
